Nandrolone is an anabolic, or tissue-building, steroid sometimes taken by athletes seeking to build muscle mass (it is banned by the International Olympic Committee as well as other athletic organizations). Among its effects is a high level of androgenic activity. Which of the androgens shown on page 867 does it most closely resemble? How does it differ from that androgen?
Stanozolol is an anabolic steroid that promotes muscle growth. Although stanozolol has been used by athletes and body builders, many physical and psychological problems result from prolonged use and it is banned in competitive sports. a. Explain why the nitrogen heterocycle$-$a pyrazole ring$-$is aromatic. b. In what type of orbital is the lone pair on each N atom contained? c. Draw all reasonable resonance structures for stanozolol. d. Explain why the pK$_a$ of the N$-$H bond in the pyrazole ring is comparable to the pK$_a$ of the 0$-$H bond, making it considerably more acidic than amines such as CH$_3$NH$_2$ (pK$_a$ = 40).
Until relatively recently, the use of androgens by athletes was a common, legal practice. What are the advantages of using androgens during athletic training and competition?
